John Curran (Dublin Mid West, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

While I am addressing my question to the Tánaiste, I am sorry the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport has left, because he might have been able to assist. The transport strategy for the greater Dublin area for 2016 to 2035 was published earlier this year. It is underpinned by the Government's capital programme, which sees a scaled-back metro north, the abandonment of metro west and no immediate timeline for a Luas strategy for Lucan. The programme for Government specifically commits to instigating a full review of public transport policy to ensure services are sustainable into the future and meet the needs of a modern economy. What will be that review's format and when will it be conducted, in light of the omissions from these plans?
